A sample indicator, Test_CmoOnArray.mq5, demonstrates the application of the CmoOnArray class. The CmoOnArray.mqh file must be placed in the MQL5\Include\ OnunArray folder within your terminal's data folder (create the OnunArray folder if it does not exist).
The Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO) was developed by Tushar Chande. It is a technical indicator that measures the speed of price changes. The range of the CMO is from -100 to +100. Values of +50 and -50 are generally considered to represent overbought and oversold market conditions, respectively.
